Fenway Flashback: O What a Night!

September 28, 2007
Fenway Park
Camden Yards

The Red Sox came into the game needing a Sox win and a Yankees loss to clinch the AL East. Dice-K was outstanding as the Sox got their win, but the Orioles stole the show down in Baltimore, while the Fenway Faithful stood vigil in Fenway. The truest of the true Red Sox fans stay in the ballpark for hours after the Sox game had ended, despite the sufficient lead that the Yankees had -- despite the fact that the Yankees had only lost one game in which they went into the 8th inning with a lead. Despite all the odds, the Fenway Faithful stood strong, willing the Orioles to rally, eyes glued to the Jumbotron. And the Orioles were feeling the love that night and mounted one of the most exciting comebacks of the year. Here's what the folks were watching on that giant television in centerfield:
